2016 Season: Week 11

It's another weekend where I have to leave town for a few days. Commando and/or Pitt will be relied on to take care of advance. So you have whatever Five Finger Death Punch Commando feels like linking to for the weekly post write-up, or whatever Pitt is feeling at the moment. haha

At this point in the season, Andrew Luck is garnering the most buzz as your MVP. So much so that he's pulling TY Hilton up into 3rd with him. Tyrod Taylor is quietly number 2 leading the Bills with a 7-2 record. Colts HC Jeff Saturday is also the top Coach of the Year candidate as well.

The AFC South is dominating player of the year awards in the AFC overall along with offensive position awards. The Dolphins and Bengals have a few players on the defensive side showing up. The Giants and NFC South have a pretty dominant hold on most player award ballots in the NFC.

Some pretty great matchups this week. Titans and Colts was amazing in round 1. Can nickoftime rise up to knock off the lone unbeaten? Bears vs Giants and Cardinals vs Vikings are two AALoA veteran matchups.

Game of the Week

Rare is the chance to highlight a team from the AFC North that is not the Steelers. Beachlife has taken over the Bengals and restored life to the franchise quickly. Nour and Bills are in a tight race with the Raiders for the #2 seed in the AFC. I really don't know what to expect. We rarely ever hear from nour, and beachlife hasn't been around long enough to get a taste for his style.

I've never felt guilty after a win like that. The first handful I was just hitting ODB on open routes but the last 2 I predetermined I was throwing it to him no matter what. The one really deep post he had guys in front and back of him and not only made the catch but broke both tackles. Overall that was just a wild game perhaps aided by the rain. Some weird plays and after blitzing all game with no sacks, I rack up a few on 3-4 man rushes at the end. I think ODB has 500+ yards in the last 2 games.

My issue with madden is user defending deep balls and it's all because of this stupid ball hawk type features. I LOVED the madden a few years back where L1 was swat. Now it's supposedly holding down square which often does absolutely nothing. I want the old controls back.

Part of the wild game with ill was a 96 yard TD pass I had called back for being beyond the line of scrimmage. Yet this year, if you scramble, the game makes your QB hesitate, he can't always cross the line of scrimmage. That was promptly followed by a safety.

I forgot about that! I'll have to rewatch the game at some point, it seemed like a lot of absurd plays and because we were scoring so quickly it felt like we both had a ton of possessions
